REUTERSA Mission: Impossible star collapsed at a table in a Los Angeles diner. Ving Rhames, 66, “overheated” on Wednesday but is doing fine, his manager Bradley Kramer told the Daily Beast. A diner at the restaurant told TMZ that Rhames was spotted eating with his family when he collapsed at the table, appearing to be moving in and out of consciousness.
Paramedics rushed him to a hospital. L.A. City Fire told the outlet that a call for medical aid for a male approximately in his 60s came in at about 1:40 p.m. Kramer assured the Daily Beast that all is well with the star, who has been “working steadily.” Rhames played expert hacker Luther Stickell in all eight Mission: Impossible films, being the only character besides Tom Cruise’s Ethan Hunt to appear consistently throughout the hit franchise. Rhames is also known for several other high-profile roles, including appearances in Quentin Tarantino’s Pulp Fiction and the 90s horror hit Jacob’s Ladder.Read it at TMZRead more at The Daily Beast.
